[@lenguafranca4524]

Yes Portuguese has changed a lot more over the past 500 years than for example Spanish has, which is why Spanish from Latin America is quite similar to Spain's Spanish (which of course still has some marked differences depending on the region) whereas Portuguese from Brazil (and Malaysia) have quite a few differences from that of Portugal's dialect, especially in terms of pronunciation.

[@sonnymak6707]

A little bit of history. To say my Portugis Kristang brothers are Goans are not really the case. Who was considered Portuguese by the Portuguese of Albuquerque? Before Afonso Albu set sail from Goa with 700 Portuguese and 300 Malabaris to Malacca Portugal have already had 100 years of interaction with Africa. Most of the Portuguese soldiers born in varios parts of the conquered out post along the portugal and many were of mixed heritage but all the soldiers were Portuguese as far as the Crown was concerned. These soldiers married women in Malacca not just Malay women but many women from the many nations present in Malacca many of whom were also of mixed race. Thus for 130 years this was going on until the Dutch took Melaka in 1641 and added a few Dutch elements into the community. As for the language. The soldiers from Protugal spoken various dialetcs of Portuguese probably none spoke the Royal Prestige Dialect . Plus also as soldiers and sailors they would have known Io Sabi the Italian creole Lingua franca spoken in the Mediterranean. They inturn would have to communicate with their spouses who were not native portuguese speakers and thus a creole was created which they pass on to their Malaccan descendants. Portuguese creoles used to be spoken even in Brazil and had an influence on Brazillian Standard Portuguese which retains a lot of the old pronunciation. Thats why a Brazillian can understand Malaccan Portuguese and some nwhat vice versa if spoken slowly.b

[@vister6757]

Agree that it could be different dialects from different regions that caused the difference. Of course, they, after having lived here for a long time their Portuguese might also adopted some local colloquial words/ dilects
